Support for Creative Commons Licenses

June 14th, 2010 by Kevin Day

New to the site today is the ability for class creators to explicitly define a license for their class.  Licenses were sort of ad-hoc previously and it was up to the creator to define that in the class description.  Now, each class has a separate license attribute that the creator can modify.

The default license is Creative Commons “Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike,” and that can be changed to any of the six Creative Commons licenses.  Support for additional licenses will be added soon.

You can see an example on the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs class.

If you have a specific license that you would like to see added, leave a comment or shoot me an email.
